I believe it will, it is also lighter than the standard 6.5hp flywheel. However it is still a stock flywheel and should be replaced with an aftermarket one if you plan to remove the governor, and rev above 4000rpms

Thank you for the input. This is my first time messing with a TAV/CVT

Do you know what the JRs turn for RPM. I have read that a CVT will kill your upper RPM. Also I don't know if the individuals who stated that were properly gearing for a certain RPM, or just throwing on gears, and running blind

Engine is a 196cc with gov, removed, 18lb springs, champion rockers, CM grind cam, speedway flywheel, 14cc head ported and polished, flat top piston .010 in the hole, billit rod, tillotson Max stroke crank, 34deg. of timing, stock sized SS valves, 22mm mikuni, .980 3 stage header. This motor has...

I have a fairly built clone motor that I will be putting on a project, I don't know what the HP output is, but I would like to run a TAV on this project so I can maximize top end speed and still have a good bottom end. It will be ran on a dirt oval. My question is what is the best TAV for high...

Probably a dirty carburator. Do you use ethanal free gas in it?

The stamp on your block is a ducar part number for a clone 196cc. I have built a ton of these. If you have any questions feel free to reach out

I did a bit of research, and it seems the duromax is a Honda clone 196cc. That means a GX200, or clone crankshaft will work. At $35 the tillotson Max stroke crank can't be beat.

Measure your stroke, and the ID of your crank bearings, it may be the same as a predator 212 crank, or a 196clone crank. If it measures the same as the clone, I recommend the tillotson Max stroke crank. They are cheap, and tough as nails

I'd love to know the details of your build, I see a billet sidecover, and an awfully tall valve cover.

Tighten until they start to feel lose, then back off a quarter turn

She sure is nice! Well done.

Those absolutely look like odyssey controls. I've never seen one with a body on it though. That thing would be sweet with a snowmobile engine in it.

6000 RPMs is a good start, but...…..

Have you looked into the new juggernaut driver pulleys? they are supposedly designed specifically for High RPM/high power engines
